点评:We use to be a full season subscribers for ten years. We’ve noticed that we’re leaving after the first act 90% of the time for all performances!
We took a break for a while. Yesterday we went to see Barber of Seville I can’t tell you how disappointing it was!
It started with a live orchestra or (what ever is left of it ) and then it was a circus non stop! The vulgar interpretation of the humorous opera turned into a disaster!
The composer is turning in his grave !
Plus I’m use to listening this opera in Italian not English that doesn’t rhyme and the singers are doing nothing, but trying to catch up to the melody! The singers are bunch of clowns with mediocre vocals may be one main lead (the role of Rosina) was half way ok, but constant caricaturing didn’t do any good to this classic!
This is my last attempt to this establishment!
St Louis cultural scene is dying!
翻译:我们曾经订阅了整季的节目长达十年。我们发现,90% 的演出都是在第一幕之后就离开了!
我们休息了一段时间。昨天我们去看了塞维利亚的理发师,我无法告诉你它有多令人失望!
它以现场管弦乐队或(剩下的任何东西)开始,然后就是马戏表演!对幽默歌剧的粗俗诠释变成了一场灾难!
作曲家在坟墓里翻身了!
另外,我习惯听意大利语歌剧,而不是英语歌剧,它不押韵,歌手们什么也没做,只是试图跟上旋律!歌手们都是一群唱功平庸的小丑,也许一个主角(罗西娜的角色)还算过得去,但不断的讽刺对这部经典没有任何好处!
这是我最后一次尝试这个机构!
圣路易斯文化界正在消亡!
